Hi All
I am thinking about getting my S a second Anniv. present and was thinking Exhaust might be nice.

I don't want it too lound and I really don't want it to sound "tinny" (or riced if you know what I mean).

If anything a tad lower sound (deeper?) would be nice.

Just thought I would ask the locals :
What they had?

Where they got it?

How much it was?


Thanks
Warren

 

If you have the money, go for a Mugen. Personally, it is the best combination of sound and weight reduction.

I run a Spoon N1 w/silencer most of the time. Actually with the JR filter it runs pretty nice. On the outside, sounds really nice, but can boom a bit without the silencer in the lower rpm range, when your not on the gas. At A&J it is going for ~ $1300. I'll take offers if anyone is interested

 

I have the Tanabe Hyper Medallion....it sounds great! The deeper note (especially on the downshifts) is exactly what I was looking for. The look has kind of grown on me. I paid $1400 cdn through Tunerworks in Calgary. If money wasn't an issue I'd probably go with the Supersprint...it looks great and from the sounds clips I have neard the note is nice as well.

 

I'm probably going to get a Tanabe thru tunerworks.

If not, I'm going to get the Team Spugen oval canisters/oval tip type...

I don't want anything loud since I drive on the highway.. but the stock exhaust is just too quiet.

 

Koala...if you buy the Tanabe Hyper and want the pipes to be flush (ie not sticking out) they will need to be trimmed by about 1.5 inches...this is where Tunerworks let me down (I won't go back). They said that gettting them cut was easy but the place they sent me did a butcher job....Rob at Tunerworks said he would fix and clean them up but I haven't heard back from him since....6 months ago!

 

Thanks for the warning doodlebug.

I may end up ordering the Spugen Exhaust. Even with shipping from the US I can get it for less than the Tanabe at Tuner Works.

I really was all set on doing a titanium exhaust until I found out that they're entirely too loud. Even Spugen said that their exhaust they now make with just titanium tips is still pretty loud for some reason.

 

What the heck is spugen? spoon + mugen?

<-- buys most of his parts from the states (including OEM parts)

I would suggest getting a full stainless system vs the spugen aluminized steel piping. Especially since you live in Calgary with all the salt and rocks on the road.
